We want to end teen domestic violence by pro- moting healthy relation- ships." Girls and women ages 16-24 are a particularly vulnerable to abuse from a romantic relationship, ex- periencing abuse at a rate triple the national average and numbers that far ex- ceed victimization rates for other types of violence affecting abuse, accord- ing to the proclamation. High School abuse vic- tims are more likely to use drugs and alcohol, are at a greater risk of suicide and more likely to engage in risky sexual behavior and unhealthy diet behaviors. They are also much more likely to carry patterns of abuse into future relation- ships and have disruption in the normal development of self-esteem and body im- age. According to the proc- lamation, only 33 percent of teens in an abusive rela- tionship will tell someone about the abuse. Nearly half of the instances of abuse reported take place in a school building or on school grounds. The campaign for the awareness and prevention month is an extension of a grant-funded program that kicked off in August with a class at Salisbury High School that has expanded into three programs be- ing taught. An extension of ATV, a non-profit seeking to end domestic violence and support victims and their family and friends, the group is also work- ing to collect data starting with a survey of freshman at Red Bluff High School classes both before and af- ter a class to see the differ- ence in ideas regarding teen dating violence. "We aim to, through pre- vention education, remove any barriers to success and enrich each student's high school experience," Henry said. Together with our Youth Leadership Team, we will establish a school climate with a zero toler- ance to violence and pro- mote positive interactions with healthy boundaries." The goal is to also give teachers and staff tools to recognize the signs of abuse when they see them. In addition to the procla- mation, ATV will be doing a feather boa campaign in which they ask various com- munity members to wear a orange feather boa in a phototoshowsupportforthe month as well as various ac- tivitiesthroughtheRedBluff High School District. Teachers will have class- room assignments to en- courage discussion on healthy relationships and a contest was held with cate- gories of visual art judged by the Red Bluff Art Associ- ation, Video or film judged by KRCR's Jeremy Linder and Written entries judged by Red Bluff Daily News Ed- itor Chip Thompson with first place winners receiv- ing a Ipad mini. "It's been very impact- ful so far, but we couldn't do it without the teachers and community support," said Teen Dating Violence Prevention Specialist Nora Schwaller of the program. "We had close to 60 entries, which is not bad for a first year." The week of Feb. 13-17 is Respect Week, which will see a host of lunch- time activities at Red Bluff High School starting Mon- day with the launching of the I Expect photo con- test and handing out about 1,300 wrist bands students and community members can wear to show support. Tuesday is wear orange day and there will also be pho- tos taken during the week of the feather boa cam- paign as well as a cakewalk with a standing for a cause theme and a these hands don't hurt day. These hands don't hurt will be a mural of handprints on a banner of students showing support. In addition, handouts will be given that talk about a healthy relationship which has equality, honesty, physi- cal safety, respect, comfort, sexual respectfulness, inde- pendence and humor versus an unhealthy relationship. Signs of an unhealthy rela- tionship include a control- ling partner, dishonesty, physical or sexual abuse, de- pendence on the other part- ner where one partner may threaten to do something drastic if the relationship ends and hostility. "This year is our first year of the program, but Tehama County lines up with the na- tional average," Henry said. One thing that has helped tremendously in the success of the program so far is the support of the prevention program by the community and most especially by fel- low ATV staff and the fac- ulty at the schools, she said.

Damage FROM PAGE 1 HEATHER HOELSCHER — DAILY NEWS Sacramento River water levels rose significantly during Tuesday and Wednesday's storm and water dam release causing some Tehama County residents damage to their properties. By James MacPherson and Blake Nicholson The Associated Press CANNON BALL, N.D. With the federal government about to green-light the fi- nal phase of the Dakota Access pipeline, oppo- nents of the project pro- tested around the country Wednesday in an action some dubbed their "last stand." Some members of the Standing Rock Sioux tribe, which has been at the cen- ter of the debate for nearly a year, urged "emergency actions" via social media. The Indigenous Environ- mental Network told peo- ple to target fuel-trans- portation hubs and gov- ernment buildings and to expect violence and mass arrests. Protesters posted an on- line list of about 50 events nationwide. There were large rallies, including one outside the White House, and smaller ones, such as in Des Moines, Iowa. A group of protesters in Chicago targeted a bank, and another group went to an Army Corps of En- gineers office in New York City but was asked to leave when they started film- ing without a permit. Sev- eral people were arrested for blocking public access to a federal building in San Francisco. "Today begins the next phase of mass resistance to Donald Trump's toxic Da- kota Access pipeline," said Dallas Goldtooth, executive director of the Indigenous Environmental Network. "This is our land, our wa- ter, our health, and our cul- ture at stake — and if Don- ald Trump thinks we will give all of that up without a fight he is wrong." At a North Dakota en- campment that's been the focus of the pipeline battle for months, the mood was tense, with a few dozen peo- ple milling about on a frigid morning and refusing to talk about their plans. They ordered an Associated Press reporter to leave. JoyeBraun andPayu Har- ris, two pipeline opponents who have been at the camp since April, said in an inter- view that there's frustration but also resolve in the wake of the Army's decision. "The goal is still prayer- ful, nonviolent direct ac- tion," Braun said. The Army said Tues- day that it would allow the pipeline to cross under a Missouri River reservoir in North Dakota, the last big chunk of construction. The official permission to com- plete the pipeline, known as an "easement," could come as early as Wednesday. The tribe maintains the move will violate its treaty rights, and its attorneys have vowed to keep fighting in court. In court documents filed Tuesday, the Justice De- partment said the Army in- tends to cancel further en- vironmental study and al- low pipe to be laid beneath Lake Oahe. The Army is in- volved because the Army Corps of Engineers man- ages the river and its sys- tem of hydroelectric dams, which is owned by the fed- eral government. Although the pipeline at- tracted large protests long before Donald Trump be- came president, the call for more demonstrations was the latest example of the new administration tak- ing action that could draw widespread dissent. Large protests followed Trump's inauguration last month. Then only a week later, the president's travel ban pro- voked demonstrations at many of the nation's larger airports. The 1,200-mile pipe- line would carry North Da- kota oil through the Dako- tas and Iowa to a shipping point in Illinois. Construc- tion is nearly complete but has been stalled while the Corps and Dallas-based developer Energy Transfer Partners battled in court over the final segment. The Standing Rock Sioux tribe, whose reservation is just downstream from the crossing, fears a pipeline leak would pollute its drink- ing water. The tribe led pro- tests last year that drew thousands of people who dubbed themselves "wa- ter protectors" to the en- campment near the cross- ing. Protesters and police sometimes clashed, leading to nearly 700 arrests. NORTH DAKOTA Oi l pi pe li ne f oe s pr ot es t ar ou nd c ou nt ry By Andrew Taylor and Alan Fram The Associated Press WASHINGTON The Sen- ate on Wednesday con- firmed Sen. Jeff Sessions to be attorney general in the Trump administration de- spite fierce Democratic op- positiontotheAlabamaRe- publican over his record on civil rights and immigra- tion. The 52-47 nearly party- line vote capped weeks of divisive battles over Ses- sions, an early supporter of President Donald Trump and one of the Senate's most conservative lawmak- ers. After the vote was an- nounced, Sessions' Repub- lican colleagues applauded the outcome while barely a handful of Democrats did the same. Inapost-votevaledictory speech, Sessions alluded to the bitter partisanship and wishedformorecollegiality. "Denigratingpeoplewho disagree with us, I think, is not a healthy trend for our body," he said. Since Trump tapped Sessions, Democrats have laced into the lawmaker, casting him as too cozy with Trump and too harsh on immigrants. They as- serted he wouldn't do enough to protect voting rights of minorities, pro- tections for gays and the legal right of women to ob- tain an abortion. They fear immigrants in the coun- try illegally won't receive due process with Sessions as the top law enforcement officer. "Hisrecordraisesdoubts about whether he can be a champion for those who need this office most and it also raises doubts about whetherhecancurbunlaw- ful overreach" by Trump, said Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va.
